if any wants to seek on how to survive a very deadly event .
Go into the seeker friendly ecuemincal inclusive churches
and see HOW long you can survive THAT without being cast out , perhaps kicked and punched ,
for simply preaching the words of scripture .
I bet it can be a bit more dangerous than folks realize .
Not to mention it is about TO GET much more dangerous to speak the TRUTH when once
the law of inclusiivty is enforced upon this world by means of a AI digital system .
When that happens its gonna be real round ups and real death camps for the saints .
But fear it not . WE g ot CHRIST . So on those feet debp .
Not to mention i cannot even dare to think of how to survive
a three hour long ecumeincal intefaith praise a pope and all a thon . Think i would die of depression .

It was good that the group that came across the dying man was willing to turn away from the summit, to take him down to a doctor. They were nearly at the summit of Everest. These groups pay big money to climb Mount Everest... something like $70,000 or more. Nice they cared about the dying man instead of their achievement.

Wild story. What sticks with me is how much of surviving something like that is just refusing to quit when it makes no sense to keep going. I've had a few stretches in my own life where I felt left for dead in a different way, and what got me through was remembering I wasn't actually alone in it. Isaiah 41:10 says, "Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee." Glad he made it out.

Yes that was good that they actually did help the man .
And now a word .
Seventy thousand dollars to climb a moutain . The money had been far better spent for caring for those in need
than to exalt oneself in pride to say OH i climbed a mountain .
But yes , i do agree that at least they HELPED the man rather than trying to achieve that goal .

thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God .
Have we ever considered that my friend .
People die on that mountain . There is a huge difference
between say ones plane had crashed on that moutain
and had to call upon God for to help him survive .
Verses one who willfully knows the danger and then purposfully puts themselves
in harm or dangers way .
just a friendly reminder for us all NOT to do such things .
